The main table contains all data collected from each bottomfish received and processed over the course of the Federal Disaster Relief Program (FDRP)-funded Hawaiian Archipelago Bottomfish Sampling Program as well as fish collected on the Oscar Elton Sette, other research cruises including small boat operations, hapu'upu'puu received from the Laysan during a separate project, and any bottomfish that are donated or purchased for age and growth research from the United Fishing Agency (UFA) fish auction, Chinatown, cooperating fishermen, etc. A list of contributing vessels and fishermen is available as child item in the bottomfish sampling data. Data and physical specimens were collected by fisheries associates and biologists of the Life History Program at the IRC lab or at sea. Information regarding the hardparts and tissues collected from each fish is documented in this dataset. Any bottomfish processed is included in this dataset. An Ecosystem Science and Management Planning Workshop was held in April 2005 that re-emphasized the need to update life history parameters from commercially important species in the Hawaiian Archipelago and assess spatial connectivity of local bottomfish populations in the region. It was further recognized that this work would require the collection of large numbers of geo-referenced samples to re-estimate life history parameters and assess connectivity between isolated populations. Collection of bottomfish specimens began to accomplish this goal. underDevelopment Schemmel, Eva M eva.schemmel@noaa.gov Contact via email. pointOfContact asNeeded FRMD LHP PIFSC bottomfish dorsal spines lengths otoliths weights theme Date Caught Work Up Date temporal Main Hawaiian Islands (MHI) Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI) place DOC/NOAA/NMFS/PIFSC > Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
